The seals have gone and there is nothing she can do apart from get the glass replaced.

The units have failed, she would need to get the double glazed unit replaced. She needs a window fitter rather than a double glazing company to measure the size of the glazing unit properley, and ask the window fitter where she can order new glazing units from.

or she could look in yellow pages and get a "steamy window" replacement company in, and they would do the lot for her.

As already said the unit really needs replacing. 

It is possible to drill a small hole on the inside pane, this will allow moisture to escape the unit so it won't look as bad.  Of course drilling a glass panel is pretty risky.
